Quenelda has always had a magical bond with dragons, and her greatest wish is to fly one and fight alongside her father in the war against the hobgoblins. Root, on the other hand, wishes only to avoid the fearsome creatures, so the role of Quenelda's esquire is the last thing he needs. But an unexpected friendship is forged, and when Dragons Dome is besieged by a deadly plot, this unlikely duo must find a way to defeat the dark forces. Epic battles, whispered legends and soaring magic combine in this breathtaking debut fantasy, Book One of the Dragonsdome Chronicles, with black and white illustrations by David Wyatt.

Terrific first novel. Its aimed at 9-12 year olds but older teens and adults will enjoy it. Great heroine and hero, gripping battle scenes, magic, an evil baddy and best of all the dragons! She really brings their characters out and there are both some very funny moments and ones that may have you in tears. Roll on the next book and please lets have it made into a film! - Brian McGill Write a review
